Horror games hit a bit closer to home this year. One of the biggest releases on the horror game calendar concerned a woman surviving through the chaos of a viral outbreak and came out around the time the real world was trying to survive through the chaos of an actual viral outbreak. Another was set in a post-viral apocalyptic world and surprisingly, the remaining dregs of humanity didn’t get along very well. Hey, at least, in reality, we didn’t have to contend with walking bioweapons or murderous religious fanatics on top of everything else, right?
